Dreams

by Olive Schreiner

In her haunting and visionary collection of short stories, Dreams, Olive Schreiner explores the inner lives of women in Victorian-era South Africa, grappling with issues of identity, love, and societal expectations. Schreiner's stories are set in a time and place where women were often confined to narrow roles and denied basic freedoms. But through her dreamlike narratives, Schreiner gives voice to the hopes and dreams of women who dared to imagine a different world.
